The CBI on Saturday moved the Delhi high court seeking immediate cancellation of the bail to former Haryana chief minister Om Prakash Chautala over his alleged violation of the conditions set for the same.

Central Bureau of Investigation sources said that the agency had approached the high court as Chautala, who was granted bail on medical grounds, has allegedly violated its terms by participating in election rallies.

The 79-year-old Indian National Lok Dal chief, who has been convicted and sentenced to 10 years in jail in a teachers’ recruitment scam case, was granted bail in May this year on medical grounds.

Following repeated violations of bail conditions, which were brought to the notice of the court by the CBI, Chautala had volunteered on September 26 that he would surrender after which he was directed to surrender by October 17.
